anyway...
It appears China is getting ready for a war, most people dont even
know has the possibility of existing.
However if you will turn to page 345 of your Shadowrun text, you will
notice that war was predicted in this way back in 1989. *smirk*
Anyway. My ON TOPIC question is, what are peoples opinions on this
warfare type?
We obviously have someone priming their weapons, and it would be
stupid of us not to do the same.. but the problem is... until we have
seen this type of war, how do we know what to do to defend against our
enemy?
Interesting concept when you gather a bit of intel. There was a
recent Australian PC mag that was talking to someone in the US about
hacking and the like. The comment was that the Chinese government
does all but encourage their people to try to hack into US systems.
Its really quite nasty.
Anyway, to recap, what do we think about this warfare? If it started
today, what impact would that have on the computer industry, and
things like that? Would a concept like a datajack be investigated to
speed up our peoples response to a realtime attack?
Talk to you soon
